![]() ![]() Starting with the flaws, the animation continues to be less than brilliant, apart from a creepy atmosphere and some nice colours some of the weakest animation of the show is in this episode, with crude and less than smooth drawings, the Harlem Globetrotters being flatly drawn and coloured and (despite being a much better villain than on the 'Scooby Doo Where are You' episode "Go Away Ghost Ship") Redbeard is one of the worst looking ghosts on the show. While there are better episodes in the show than "The Ghostly Creep from the Deep" (like the Batman and Robin episodes, "Wednesday is Missing" and "The Haunted Horseman of Hagglethorn Hall"), it is better as far as earlier episodes go than "The Ghastly Ghost Town" and "Sandy Duncan's Jekyll and Hyde" and later on than from memory the Jerry Reed, Josie and the Pussycats and Jeannie (that as a child seemed a very out of place episode and didn't feel like Scooby Doo) episodes. ![]() 'The New Scooby Doo Movies' is a very patchy (re-watching it through older eyes) but entertaining show, and fares better than most succeeding Scooby Doo incarnations warts and all. ![]() ![]() ![]() In the midst of chaos and madness, the flame of their romance will be dangerously rekindled, as their lives and the London they know are changed forever.

Sonny’s car wears brown paint in its “coves” along the stock door and fenderlines, while the Cher car’s coved panels are painted a more distinct red to contrast the rest of the body’s Hot Pink. The taillight treatments are completely custom, with their origin unknown-they somewhat resemble the wide rear lights on a mid-‘60s T-Bird or a ’68 GT/CS, but are not divided into three sections as they are on those Fords, nor are they sequential. ![]() Each car got deluxe Mustang rocker panel trim and faux sidepipes, although it appears the cars wear small functional notched dual exhaust outlets in the lower rear fascias.
